Due to an increase in alcohol-related incidents at the university during the past few years, the university's alcohol policy has been revised and sanctions against violating groups have been spelled out.
James Dennis, vice president of student affairs, is expected to formally announce the change in the alcohol policy within the next few weeks. This is the first time in seven years that the policy has been revised.
"The answer would be yes, that there's a connection between the incidents going on and the change in the alcohol policy," said Logan Ha-zen, director of resident and
student development and former chairman of the university's alcohol awareness committee.
"We've always had a steady level of alcohol problems on campus,” he said. "In the last couple of years there's been two things: a general increase in serious problems, including student fatalities that were alcohol related, and there's also been serious individual and group-related alcohol problems. There's a whole spectrum from vandalism to disturbance of the university community up through injury"
Hazen said that this increase in alcohol-related incidents and a growing (Continued on page 3)
CIA recruitment rises on college campuses
By Mark Lowe

CIA recruiters — for years forced off college campuses by students protesting the agency's activities — are back in force at universities nationwide, and students are signing up in the greatest numbers in 10 years.
They also are returning to this campus — reportedly a favorite target for CIA recruiters — interviewing students in sessions set up and sponsored by the university.
‘Conservatism is much more in vogue/ Snepp said. 'Serving your country, even in a covert capacity, is not reprehensible these days.'
"They're employing (students) and other (agencies) are not," said Carole Gustin, director of student affairs for the School of International Relations.
Gustin said in the past three to four years, CIA recruiters have appeared annually on campus to talk to graduating students.
Frank Snepp, a former CIA agent who now teaches at the university, said one reason students are more receptive to the CIA is that patriotism is on the rise in the United States.
"Conservatism is much more in vogue," Snepp said.
"Serving your country, even in a covert capacity, is not reprehensible these days."
He said university students he has talked to think of working for the CIA "in non-ideological, non-political terms, as a terrific career."
College students are not deterred from the CIA by past scandals and incidents of the agency abusing its power, nor are they affected by the CIA's backing of rebels fighting the Sandinista government of Nicaragua, he said.
"I think they're as important as smoke for university students today," he said. "Latin America gives students some pause, but Vietnam is long behind us as far as students are concerned."
He said the agency is also stepping up its recruiting efforts to replace the original CIA personnel who have retired.
Kathy Pherson, public affairs officer for the CIA, said she did not know if recruiters are stepping up their appearances on campus or are getting a better response from students.
"From what the recruiters have told me, we've never had problems getting people to apply," Pherson said. "The problem is targeting the right people."
But The Chronicle of Higher Education reported last month that the CIA received 200,000 resumes in 1983 alone, a 100 percent increase over applications 10 years ago. Local recruiters were not available to comment.
Gustin said the CIA will not disclose how many students it recruits annually, terming it classified information.
Snepp, who himself was recruited to the CIA in 1968 out of Columbia University, said the agency has for years hired students out of colleges, both openlv and covertly.
Officially, he said, the CIA stopped covert recruitment of American students in 1968, but he said it is "regulation that can be altered with the stroke of a pen."
"There is very good reason to believe that covert recruitment continues," he said, adding the CIA continued

The CIA also still recruits international students covertly, Snepp said, particularly in Los Angeles because of its large Latino population and the agency's interest in Central America.

LAOOC goods taken; ‘giveaway’ charged
New alcohol policy to be implemented
By David Jefferson
Assistant Investigations Editor
A university parking structure used to store hundreds of valuable goods for the Olympics was ransacked the w'eekend following the close of the Games — an incident some people are saying was permitted by the Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee.
Parking Structure C, located on 35th and Figueroa streets, was used to store Suzuki motorcycles, Panasonic television sets and portable stereos, beds, trunks, fans, lamps, and French medications and vitamins.
Sometime during the weekend of Aug. 18, nearly all of these items were taken.
The confusion arose wrhen the LAOOC gave control of the Olvmpic Village back to the university on Aug. 15, and construction crews began restoring
the area to its original state.
Duane Hickling, executive administrator for the university's Olympic Planning Office, said some people who worked in the Village were told they could take some items from the structure because of their contributions during the Games.
However, Hickling said the incident was mistakenly interpreted as "an Olympic giveaway — and some of the rank and file who were doing Olympic takedown" told people they could take the merchandise.
"It was even on one of the local newscasts," he added.
In fact, the majority of items in the structure were not supposed to be given away, Hickling said. Much of it had been sold, and some had been bought by the university.
Hickling said he went to the
